The line of irrelevance is preparing to leapfrog the loser of the Georgia-South Carolina showdown.

12. Ohio (5-0)Previous rank: 12

Rallied past UMass, 37-34, for their third road win. That's two more road games than Florida State has played.

13. Ohio State (5-0)Previous rank: 8

Outlawry and Urban Meyer yielded to the definitive Big Ten-ness of a 17-16 win over Michigan State.

14. Texas (4-0)Previous rank: 14

Beat Oklahoma State by five points, or 16 fewer points than Arizona did.
